Today Vancouver welcomes the world to the 2010 Winter Olympics.  Insert hometown pride here!!

Vancouverties and all Olympic followers will be adopting a more sportier look for the next couple of weeks as they get into the spirit and support their country’s athletes.  Let me say: GO CANADA GO!

Kudos to Canadian retailer, Holt Renfrew, for their sporty window display (in their downtown Vancouver location) as they embrace the Games with high fashion.  Why not, eh? Only, HR can make hockey looks stylish. Imagine if I could skate gracefully in a Dolce & Gabbana fuschia dress. Well, a girl can only dream.

Let the Games begin!!

My day is exploding, but I can’t help but pause and share some crazy new that has rocked the fashion world, sadly. The Daily Mail is reporting that Alexander McQueen committed suicide. The designer was found dead at his flat in London (believed to have hung himself).

McQueen’s office confirmed the suicide, saying, “It is a tragic loss. We are not making a comment at this time out of respect for the McQueen family.”

The Cut says it so well:  McQueen was widely considered to be a genius in the industry. His whimsical designs moved many editors to tears; often the showmanship of his collections pushed them to feel something beyond mere fashion.

This is a great summer contest from Tory Burch – I’m entering! Ironically, I’m not crazy about the shoes, which are her signature items. I’ve got a one shirt in particular that I love, and my closet would be happy with more Tory Burch.
